Former Patriots coach Bill Belichick is going viral after his 24-year-old girlfriend Jordan Hudson interrupted an interview with CBS News Sunday Morning, refusing to speak on how the two met.
According to Mediaite, the interview was conducted by CBS News reporter Tony Dokoupil to discuss Belichick’s upcoming book “The Art of Winning,” however, viewers were quick to point out the tatted Navy sweatshirt that Belichick, 73, was wearing during the interview.
Social media was also quick to response, with some users on X calling the interview “awkward” and “cringy” when Hudson interrupted and advised Belichick to “blink twice” if he was in danger.
When asked how he and Hudson had met, Hudson replied swiftly with “He’s not talking about this,” after it had been previously reported the pair had said they met on an airplane.
Barstool Sports owner Dave Portnoy said the interview had him “squirming” in his seat.
“My Sunday morning routine is always coffee and CBS Sunday Morning. It’s a feel good show,” Portnoy wrote on X. “The opposite of controversial. So image my surprise this morning when they had the most awkward Bill Belichick interview I’ve ever seen. Like I was squirming in my seat.”

“I typically enjoy the Sunday morning show with the interviews and banter but this interview this AM with Coach Belichick is downright awkward. What’s up with his sweatshirt too? Show some respect my guy. This almost could go as a SNL skit,” one X user wrote.
“Bill Belichick crawled out of a dumpster and got interviewed on TV,” another wrote.
“Yikes: This has to be the most awkward Bill Belichick interview he’s ever done…😳 Something strange is going on with Jordon Hudson,” another user pointed out.
Mediaite further reported that while speaking on his book, Belichick said he had not mentioned Patriots owner Robert Kraft because “It’s about my life lessons in football, and it’s really more about the ones that I experienced directly.”
Belichick left the franchise at the end of the 2023 NFL season, and when asked about being fired by Kraft, Belichick said “it was a mutual decision for use to part ways.”
